cal Center is expanding services into other counties in the Upper Cumberland. Recently they opened a new clinic in Livingston, one in Fairfi eld Glade and are planning to acquire a hospital in Celina.

Having had a presence in the Cumberland County area for several years through health fairs and com-munity health seminars, CRMC has taken it a step further with the open-ing of the new primary and speciality care clinic on Peavine Road.

The Fairfi eld Glade Clinic of Cookeville Regional is now open and staffed by family nurse practi-tioner Elaine Howard, FNP. It will be Elaine’s job to care for patients who have minor illnesses and injuries.

Howard has over 40 years’ experience in health care.

In addition, specialty physi-

cians from Cookeville Regional are routinely available in the clinic each week so that patients will have the convenience of seeing them in the Fairfi eld Glade area instead of travel-ing to Cookeville for every visit.

Specialists available in the clinic include: cardiologists, orthopedic surgeons, a pulmonary medicine specialist, gastroenterologist, and a general/vascular surgeon along with other specialists in the future. The clinic is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

“As a regional referral medical center, it is important for our hos-pital to expand its services to other communities,” said Dr. Menachem Langer, CEO of Cookeville Regional. “We’ve also opened a specialty clinic in Livingston to provide cardiology

services there. Community outreach is important to us and we are pleased to offer these services in other com-munities.”

Code 37 ProtocolAnother way Cookeville Regional

is expanding into other communi-ties is through the development of the Code 37 protocol to help in the treatment of heart attacks. Through the dedicated efforts of cardiologists Stacy Brewington, M.D. and Brian Dockery, M.D. along with hospitals and area ambulance services includ-ing Cumberland Medical Center and Cumberland County EMS, Cookeville Regional and ambulance services in the region have partnered together

Don’t let the CLOCK

beat YOU

During a heart attack, every minute counts.!at’s because, according to the American College of Cardiology, if the heart is in distress for longer than 90 minutes, heart muscle and other organs can become damaged beyond repair. !e Heart and Vascular Center of Cookeville Regional is consistently beating the 90-minute standard by more than half. CRMC’s average time for stopping a heart

attack is 43 minutes! As a matter of fact, we have been recognized by HealthGrades® as being in the top 5% in the U.S. and #1 in Tennessee for coronary intervention (stopping heart attacks). And we’re the only health care facility in the region with interventional capabilities to stop a heart attack and perform surgery if necessary.

My earliest memories about sports has the name and face of John Teeples in a prominent place. He was the head

football coach at my alma mater, Celina High School, from before I can remem-ber. I was blessed to have him as my coach, as well as mentor. He lived a wonderful life.

He died in June at the age of

86, bringing to an end a career that spanned his entire life. Even though he quit coaching over 30 years ago, he never quit encouraging people, young and old, to do their best. To me, he was a coach right up to the end.

He was one of the “Greatest Generation.” He served in the Navy in WWII. His career as an educator and coach began after graduating Tennes-see Tech University with a degree in Biology. I loved being in his classes. He taught like he coached. He used “tough love” in everything. He de-manded your best effort and we gave it at his command. I don’t know of a soul who “played” for him who would not run through a brick wall at his suggestion.

Due to his coaching style, he was ultra successful. He would beat your brains out and make you like it. He had the respect of every opposing coach he ever faced, most of which often “whipping boys” for his superior teams.

He coached football, boys and girls basketball without an assistant and without a coaching supplement. He knew how to develop players and he was a great game-day coach. It was his game and he was in total control. In addition to being a legend-ary high school coach, he started little league baseball in his hometown and

later coached and sponsored there. I have heard my cousin Karl Napi-

er say, that he was a Cardinal fan way back, for no other reason than they were Coach’s team. That was the kind of infl uence he had on people. I played football and basketball for him. He could make you nervous for sure, but he could also get a level of play out of you that you didn’t know you had.

All this I am writing about him is being read by people who never knew him. He was not from Crossville and we did not play Crossville. Most of my readers are not natives of Tennes-see, but I know you will appreciate the kind of man Coach Teeples was. Perhaps this story will make you think of your old high school coach.

Right up to the moment I walked down the aisle helping to carry his casket as a pall bearer, I thought of how I would miss him. He has been a constant in my life since I was a little boy.

I will miss shaking Mr. Teeples’ hand and seeing that optimistic smile and hearing him say, “How you doing, Don?” and knowing he meant it. But most of all, I’ll miss the stories -- he could take you back 50 years in an instant with a story about “Punkin” Smith or Charles Vaughn or Earl Davis.

For years we have all used Coach Teeples as our “source” when we wanted to know something about the old days. He was a walking dictionary of Clay County sports. Folks, that is lost forever. He was also a lifetime fan and supporter himself. That is some-thing we sometimes forget about. He will be missed.

Kevin Donaldson, my longtime editor when I owned the newspaper in Celina many years ago, may have said it best. “We don’t have any more like him coming along, and may never again - a man who contributed in SO MANY DIFFERENT AVENUES in life. I know several folks who contribute greatly in one or two fi elds, but his body of work is almost unbeliev-able when you stop and take it all in: educator and coach, military service, successful businessman, civic leader in multiple fi elds, elected offi cial, and just an overall fi ne man. He served his community, school and nation almost as long as many people live. My only regret in knowing him is that I did not know him better.”

NOTE - He is survived by son Patrick Teeples, an assistant principal at Stone Memorial High School in Crossville.

Ken Burnett passes awayA long-time acquaintance of

mine who became a good friend over the years, Ken Burnett, died recently after a long illness. He was a regular at Mitchell’s Drug Store’s roundtable until his health got to the point that he was no longer able to make the trip in to town. We miss him.

Born during the Great Depression in 1927 to a farmer and a housewife, Ken spent his early childhood living in an era of hard times and he was quick to tell you about it.

“We were poor, but I didn’t know it at the time because everyone else

was, too,” he said. “I delivered papers, sold rosebud salve, anything to make just a nickel.”

After graduating from Cumberland County High School in 1945, Burnett immediately entered the Navy. Before his military duty would end, he served in China at the end of World War II and in the Korean War, reporting for active duty in 1951.

In 1959, Burnett became a licensed pilot and began fl ying his own plane to many of the places he visited for

Proven CareComes Home

At Cookeville Regional, we want to make it easy to get the best care in the region.That’s why we’re opening a clinic right here in Fairfield Glade that will staff a

primary care nurse practitioner as well as specialists in general surgery, cardiology,orthopedics, pulmonary medicine, gastroenterology, urology and other specialties.

It's all right here at your doorstep — because we care about you!

APPOINTMENTSCall 931-484-3050.Walk-ins are welcomefor primary care.

to activate treatment of a heart attack sooner than ever before.

Once the ambulance staff de-termines through an EKG that the patient is having a heart attack, they are now able to activate the “heart team” of cardiologists and cardiac catheterization staff at Cookeville Regional from the fi eld. That way, patients arrive at the hospital with the team waiting on them to immedi-ately begin the procedure to stop the heart attack.

The gold standard for stopping a heart attack is 90 minutes according to the American College of Cardiol-ogy. The Heart and Vascular Center at Cookeville Regional is averaging 43 minutes from the time the patient arrives at the hospital to the time that their heart attack is stopped.

By working together with EMS personnel, we are reducing the amount of time it takes to stop a heart attack,” continued Dr. Langer. “We recently had a patient from this area whose heart attack was stopped within 70 minutes from the time EMS did his EKG in Cumberland County to the time that his heart attack was stopped in the cardiac cath lab. That’s including the time it took to travel to Cookeville and to do the procedure. That’s a phenomenal time. Of course, the best result is that the patient is doing very well and is already getting back to his normal activities.”

Cumberland River AcquisitionNot only has Cookeville Regional

expanded into Cumberland County, but the medical center is also pur-chasing Cumberland River Hospital in Celina.

We are looking forward to hav-ing Cumberland River Hospital as a part of our system of health care services,” continued Dr. Langer. “This acquisition will be a win-win for both hospitals. We are able to further ex-pand our reach into the region while Cumberland River Hospital and its patients will get the benefi t of being a part of a larger organization with additional resources and services.

“Because of uncertainties in to-day’s health care environment, more

and more independent hospitals are exploring options to join with others,” continued Dr. Langer. “With health care reform looming in our future, it is imperative that we take steps now to secure our position so that we may continue our mission to provide high quality health care now and into the future.”

New Psychiatric FacilityAlso on the horizon for Cookev-

ille Regional is the opening of a new psychiatric facility within the medical center.

This summer Ten Broeck Ten-nessee is opening a ’32-bed hospital within a hospital’ in a wing of our hospital and will be providing mental

health and addiction treatment ser-vices,” said Dr. Langer. “Our region has been underserved for many years in the fi eld of mental health so the opening of this facility is very impor-tant to us.”

We continue to look for ways to expand our services,” said Dr. Langer. “We will fi nish expansions in our Emergency Department and Surgery later this year. We’ve also added 14 new physicians to our medical staff this year with more to come.”

Award-Winning Medical Center

A 247-bed regional referral center that is home to over 200 physicians representing 40 medical and surgi-cal specialties, Cookeville Regional Medical Center is an award-win-ning facility recognized nationally for quality care. As a matter of fact, the medical center has been named the top rated hospital in Tennessee for cardiac care, vascular surgery and orthopedic services by HealthGrades in 2012. Additionally, the hospital is one of America’s 100 Best Hospitals in these specialty areas as well as spine surgery, and just last month, Cookeville Regional was ranked #2 in the state for patient safety by Con-sumer Reports.

Our top priority here is qual-ity care,” said Dr. Langer. “We are pleased to have such outstanding quality ratings but we don’t rest on our laurels. We work every day to be sure our care is top notch.”

work. This was a dream come true, Burnett stated.

“I’ve always enjoyed fl ying,” he said. “I can remember when I was little and I would have an opportunity to go to the airport out here, I would go

every opportunity just to be near a plane, just to touch one. The magic of fl ying was very great to me.”

Ken was active right up until the end, always fi nding time to give for the things that were important to him. He be-

came involved with Highland Federal Savings and Loan serving on its board

of directors for more than 25 years. He served on the board of directors at Cumberland Medical Center, repre-sented the Crossville Airport Commit-tee as chairman for which he received a Distinguished Service Award from the city and work with the Crossville-Cumberland County Chamber of Commerce.

In a story about Ken that appeared in The Crossville Chronicle before his death, Ken said, “It’s been a privilege to serve on a board with fi ne people such as at Highland Federal and the hospital,” Bur-nett stated. “It has been a very satisfying experience.”

Ken was known at Mitch-ells as the “resident Repub-lican.” There was nothing I loved better than to listen to him and chief Democrat Tom Looney tear into an issue. Ken could hold his own. He is missed.

Local artist turns plastic and paper into one-of-a-kind woven “art”

Cuban artist Louis Rives and his wife Maria dropped by the Crossville Life offi ce a few weeks ago, to show off his woven rug/wall hanging that he created, using over 43,000 pieces of plastic grocery bags, fl orist tape, masking paper. While I struggle to give it a name, Louis calls it a sign

and it took him six months to com-plete.

Louis says he has made several “signs” since moving to Crossville 14 years ago from Cleveland, Ohio. This new sign, he says, is his largest. The message is fi lled with chosen bible verses and other religious icons.

He uses the same weaving tech-nique to make other items, including a small basket that we bought from him for $10. It is an art he learned

from his father when he was 13 years old and he will make custom signs if you would like to hire him to do so. This particular one (in the photo) is not for sale. He said that it would take six months to build one like it.

Starting in 2001, he made one of his “signs” from nearly 6,000 packs of cigerettes. He sold it. If you are interested in Louis making you one of his “signs”, call him at 210-0368 or 216-785-6631.

Ken Burnette

Emma Cain, granddaughter to Fairfi eld Glade residents Betty and Marv Mrnka, was recently named the ‘National Swim Champion in Great Britain, winning the over-all “ Bagcat’’ award for her age group.

She won four gold medals (100 meter breast stroke, 200 meter breast stroke, 200 meter individual medley, and 400 meter individual relay). She

set two National and three Southeast Regional records in Great Britain.

Each year the British Gas Company gives the BAGCAT award to the overall swimming champion for the fi ve day competition. Because of her many swimming awards Emma was chosen to participate in the ‘’ British Olympic Trials 2012’’. She was the youngest swimmer to swim in the trials.

Emma’s strongest event is the Breast Stroke and her coaches feel she has a bright future and potential for the

2016 Olympics. Emma and her par-ents, Suzanne Mrnka Cain and Steve Cain live in Chiddingfold, England.

Cookeville Regional Medical Center proudly welcomes surgeon Charles T. Hud-dleston, M.D. He has joined the practice of Middle Tennessee Sur-gical Specialists with Drs. Scott Copeland, Brian Gerndt, Jeff Mc-Carter and Jeff Moore.

Dr. Huddleston is pleased to be relo-cating to the Upper Cumberland area from Tullahoma and will be practicing the full spec-trum of general surgery with a special interest in advanced laparoscopic cases, bariatric and metabolic surgery.

“I love the technically challenging aspects of bariatric surgery and feel that it is such a rewarding fi eld,” said Dr. Hud-dleston. “To see someone get the benefi ts that come with the weight loss following bariatric surgery is so very fulfi lling.”

Dr. Huddleston will be offering bariat-ric procedures at Cookeville Regional Medi-cal Center including laparoscopic gastric banding (lap band) and sleeve gastrectomy.

Raised nearby in Livingston where he graduated valedictorian of the class of 1993 from Livingston Academy, Dr. Hud-dleston received an undergraduate degree in chemistry from Tennessee Technologi-cal University and went on to receive his medical degree from East Tennessee State University James H. Quillen College of Medicine in Johnson City in 2001. There

he was selected to the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha National Medical Honor So-ciety. He performed his surgical residency at East Tennessee State University as well as a clinical fellowship in surgical research. Dr. Huddleston also served twice as a medical offi cer in support of Operation Iraqi Free-dom from 2006 to 2009. He remains an ac-tive member of the 278th Armored Calvary Regiment, Tennessee Army National Guard as a fi eld surgeon with the rank of Major.

Cumberland County abounds in resident performing artists and in organizations that bring performing artists into our area. One of those organiza-tions is PAART Performing Arts Alliance of Rural Tennessee. The following information is credited to Debra Mendenhall, a continu-ing leader of PAART.

PAART is a non-profi t organization formed to educate, enrich, and entertain by bringing a wide variety of performing artists to our community. In order to give opportunity to as many people as possible, PAART strives to keep admission prices as low as possible (usually about $10) and at the same time provide an opportunity for very talented performing artists to display their craft to what might be an otherwise untapped audience.

The inspirational seed for PAART was planted in December of 2006. Debra Men-denhall organized a series of fund-raising performance events at the Palace Theatre to help the Brown Elementary chess team go to the National Chess competition in Sacramento. The Performing Arts Alli-ance of Rural Tennessee grew from that project. Throughout 2007, Debra presented over 20 performance events at the Palace Theatre featuring artists from all over the southeastern region.

In the fall of 2007 Patty Payne, well-loved actress and performer, joined forces with Debra Mendenhall and was the driving force in subsequent events which included children’s and seniors’ theatre productions. The volunteer community casts included experienced perform-ers as well as some who had never participated in a stage

production before and therefore learned about many aspects of live theatrical performance. These events were made possible with support and sponsorship of Alice Payne and Martin Plumbing and the hard work and talents of the volunteer performers.

Palace Theatre reserved monthly PAART has reserved the Palace

Theatre the First Friday of every month and over the years has presented over 80 events including Grammy award winning artists, the Nashville Opera and Ballet, music of all genres including Classical, Americana, Jazz, Blues, and Celtic. For a large percentage of these events they have offered educational outreach matinees because education is a very important aspect of PAART’s vision. They focus much of their event planning on bringing the

The date has been set for the always-popular City of Crossville Airport Open House & Fly-In, city offi cials announced this week. The annual event is held at Crossville Me-morial Airport, Whitson Field.

“This year’s event is scheduled for Saturday,Sept. 29, from 9 a.m.-3 p.m.”, said city marketing director Billy Loggins, “and will feature a wide range of events including vintage war planes and other planes on static display and the opportunity to ride in several different airplanes.”

“Bring your lawn chairs and umbrellas, and plan to spend the day,” said Chris Bennett, Crossville Fixed Base Operator. “There will be food and drink for sale and we will have infl atables for the smaller kids.”

It has not been fi nalized, but

plans are underway to have an open cockpit plane available for rides. Last year the fl y-in had an open cockpit 1930 Stearman on site. Watch the local newspapers for more information on

this year’s fl y-in. Other rides will be in a P-51 Mustang. There will also have a Cobra Helicopter and a Jet Ranger available for rides. Registration will be required to ride these planes, but there is no charge to register.

The airport, which dates back to 1934, celebrated its “offi cial” 75th an-niversary in 2009. It has a rich history, and has served as the training ground for many a student pilot.

Crossville Memorial Airport has been honored by the state of Tennes-see for its commitment to quality, and continually strives to keep facilities up to date.

“This is always a well-attended event and we expect another big crowd for this year’s Fly-In and Air Show. We hope everyone will mark their calendars now to be with us

again on September,” Loggins said.“Since last year’s fl y-in, we have

constructed 16 new T-Hangars. We also installed a new 12,000 gallon, above-ground AV-gas fuel farm. The system has self-fueling capabilities for pilots,” Bennett said. “We have also received a grant to replace the runway lights,” he said.

Admission to the 2012 Airport Open House and Fly-In is FREE.

To commemorate the city’s Cen-tennial Park as a wetlands and aquatic habitat, a ribbon-cutting ceremony was held recently as representatives from TWRA, U.S. Fish and Wildlife, Obed Watershed and the Tennessee Dept. of Environment and Conservation gath-ered for the event.

For more than a year, many dedi-cated volunteers have worked fervently at Centennial Park making remarkable improvements to three storm water

drainage areas that fl ow into a creek that is a tributary to the Obed Wild and Scenic River. This work will help slow the runoff from the roads, parking lots and commercial areas surrounding the park and signifi cantly improved the biological integrity of the streams.

“Great partnerships make great things happen,” said Crossville Mayor J.H. Graham II. “I’m very proud of these organizations and their willingness to provide Crossville with their expertise

and advice.”Centennial Park is a 67 acre com-

plex located in the heart of Crossville.

When the Crossville Outlet Mall opened their doors 24 years ago, it was known as VF Factory Outlet Mall and VF Factory Outlet was the anchor store.

“This mall was one of 13 or 14 similar malls we opened around the nation around the same time,” VF Manager Jay Andrews said. “We were known in those days for a very aggressive pricing policy of “1/2 Off the lowest ticket price.” Andrews added.

VF Outlet of Crossville has been one of the strongest stores in the national chain as measured by volume, Andrews said. “At the time VF Factory Outlet Mall fi rst opened their doors in 1988, there were only 10 other stores in the Mall,” An-drews said. “Then in 1994, we had the fi rst of two expansions, adding 10-12 new stores. Six more stores were added in the 1996 expansion,” he said.

The main difference from to-

day’s mall and the one that opened back then is that every store was a national chain. “Now we have sev-eral independents and some mom and pops,” Andrews said.

“We are closing in on being 25 years old, but we are still going strong,” Andrews said. The pricing in the Vanity Fair store is different today than it was when we fi rst opened, but our prices are still very competitive and we continue to have outstanding sales on many national brands.

There are 22 businesses in the Mall today, which is now known as Crossville Outlet Center. There is 152,191 square feet of fl oor space in the mall and one restaurant, Subway.

“We enjoy a great relation-ship with the City, the Chamber of Commerce, Fairfi eld Glade and the entire county,” Andrews said. “We also love all the walkers who use our facility daily. We also love the golf tournaments, softball tourna-ments and chess tournaments that the city hosts. They are all good for us.”

“We want to continue to be a part of the Crossville community and encourage people to come to the center and shop, said Susan Binkley with the Kennedy Wilson Management Group. We are ag-gressively looking for additional store brands that shoppers recog-nize, ones that bring exceptional value to our customers here at the Crossville Outlet Center.”

Crossville Outlet Center is located at 228 Interstate Drive, just off Genesis Road at I-40.

ity has been partner-ing with families in Cumberland County since 1996, giving a “hand-up” to people in need. As of today, they have completed an incredible 53 new homes in the county, making the dream of home owner-ship a reality for people, who before had no hope.

Habitat offers an interest-free mortgage with low monthly payments to families will-ing to complete 500 hours of “sweat equity” in the project. As part of this requirement, Habi-tat families often acquire the skills needed to become successful homeowners through classes and practical, on-the-job experience.

As a way to raise money, a small group of volunteers decided to have a sale every Saturday with the proceeds benefi ting Habi-

tat. That effort started in 1998, and it resulted in enough funds to enable the organization to move into their new, 10,000 square foot building located at 329 McLarty Lane. They moved in 10 years ago.

By 2003, a craft department was estab-lished and fi ve years later, an expansion was added to the Habitat Warehouse, and they are still growing.

The Cumberland County Habitat is an affi liate of Habitat for Humanity Inter-national, an ecumenical Christian Ministry that helps build simple, decent, affordable housing in partnership with God’s people in need. The local chapter of Habitat is com-mitted to the achievement of Equal Housing Opportunity throughout the nation. Habitat is operated almost entirely by volunteers, so there is always a need for volunteers to help promote the Habitat family in Crossville.

If you have time and energy to donate

to Habitat, you can join a committee, work in the HomeStore, work on a building site, or help with the pick-up of donations.

Habitat’s success depends on the generosity of donors and volunteers. They make it easy to help. If you would like to help Habitat, call them at 484-4565. If you would like to make a donation to Habitat but cannot bring the items in, call and some of their friendly volunteers will drive the truck to your home for the pick-up. One of the best ways to recycle, is to donate your used goods, building supplies, lumber, etc. to Habitat. All donations are tax deductible.

The Habitat HomeStore carries an endless variety of furniture, household items, sporting goods, books, electronics and many yet undiscovered treasurers. The inventory changes daily, so shop often for the best variety. Remember, when you donate to the HomeStore or shop at the HomeStore, you

are helping Habitat and eventually, you are helping your fellow man.

The HomeStore is open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday.

Hospice service has such a rich history as some of the services we see today have been around before United States of America were formed. We are not surprised that some as-pects and principals of hospice care has been around from day one in our country. However, hospice as an ‘offi cial’ Medicare coverage in the U.S.A., has only seen approximately 30 years of operations. Hospice care is constantly changing as it is driven by the needs of individuals and families that are using the services.

As we reach the eventual needs of the aging baby boom generation, hos-pice providers are working to broaden their already diversifi ed services and dispel the lingering misconceptions some have about what they do. Hospice of Cumberland County’s motto of “Adding life to days when days can no longer be added to life” may very well be a national summary statement of what Hospice care is all about.

According to the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization, an estimated 1.58 million patients received hospice care from more than 5,000 pro-viders nationwide in 2010.

The earlier hospice is involved with the individual the more the person and

family can concentrate on ‘qual-ity’ of life. Robin Stawasz, fam-ily services director at Southern Tier Hospice and Palliative Care in upstate New Your commented in a recent article “...we come in and help people go golfi ng or go snowbird down to Florida. We help them get to the casinos on weekends, this is not getting ready to die. This is living now, living tomorrow, making the

best possible life with what you have.”A perfect example of this is the na-

tion-wide network some hospices have with one another to assure coverage pretty well anywhere an individual wants to go. Hospice of Cumberland County has a standing ‘traveling hospice patient agreement’ that allow patients from other areas to visit here in Cumberland County. This allows any of our patients to visit other areas, states, etc. and be connected to hospice care in that area.

We have had hospice patients visit Europe. One of the more satisfying honors we’ve had this year was connect-ing with an out-of-state hospice agency, helping make it possible for a 3-year-old terminally ill little girl visit her relatives here in Cumberland County.

Several times a year we assist travel-

ing hospice patients to our area as some of our patients, likewise, travel out of area for family visits, camping, vacations, etc.

On-going support and education for the entire family is another key element of hospice services. The more a loved one understands what is going on, the better that loved one can cope, manage, and avoid ‘provider fatigue and frustrations’ that often hamper quality of life for all involved.

Families can also take advantage of Cumberland House (a six suite 24/hour care facility here in Crossville) for up to fi ve days of respite care of an individual to allow family members to have a duty free fi ve days for whatever they want and know that their loved one is well cared for. In most cases, the fi ve days of respite is at no cost. Also Cumberland House is

available for the emergency times when an individual is experiencing acute needs that are more than can be provided at home. Once the situation has stabilized the individual can return home with all involved feeling better and not worn out by the situation, and as with respite most times at no cost. When one’s worry and stress of providing for is LESS, then they can just love and enjoy MORE.

Every day our employees get to see the good they do and how they have benefi ted an individual/family. One may have great compassion and caring for a person, and even sadness, but never de-pressed for having help lighten the load. Hospice is “so much more.”

•Hospice of Cumberland County is al-

ways happy and willing to discuss hospice services and give educational presentations to families or groups. Ken Taylor is the Ex-ecutive Director of Hospice of Cumberland County. Call him at 484-4748.

The City of Crossville State Team Champion-ship, honoring PGA Professional and Tennessee Tech golf coach Bobby Nichols, was held at Lake Tansi Village Golf Club on Monday and Tuesday, July 30-31. Ideal weather conditions on both days greeted 25 teams to the 36-hole event at Lake Tansi to compete for the championship.

Four teams tied after the fi rst day with identical scores of 12-under. Five teams came in at 11-under par 61 and three others at 10-under 62 to stay right on the heels of the leaders and put pressure on them going into day two. Casey Flenniken, PGA of Landmark Golf Club of Avalon fi red a very impres-sive 6-under par 66 to capture the individual low round of the day.

The team of Loren Personett, Paul Brannon, Matt Jeffers, and Todd Bradley, who came in with a score of 12-under par 60 to go with their fi rst day total of 61 for a 36-hole team score of 23-under par 121 and the right to be called champions.

The individual stroke play low scores saw regu-lar amateur James Van De Griff

shoot a 68-66 for a total of 10-under par 134. Casey Flenniken also played spectacular golf on both days shooting 66-67 for a total of 11-under par 133 and the Regular Professional crown. Bob Rice had the low score for the Senior Amateurs shooting 69- 69 for a 6-under par 138 while Randy Helton took home the low score in the Senior Professional Division fi ring a 69-68 for a 7-under par 137.

By DWIGHT WAGESThe Southern Stars Symphonic Brass

(SSSB) have secured their concert dates and venues and are excited to announce the outstanding events for their 5th An-niversary season.

The 30 piece professional instrumen-tal ensemble is coming off of a very suc-cessful 2011/2012 concert series which culminated with their performance with Nashville guest artists Buddy Greene and Jeff Taylor last April which drew a record audience of nearly 800. That concert doubled the normal attendance and introduced a signifi cant segment of fi rst time attendees to hear the SSSB who came away extremely impressed with their brand of Premium Entertainment.

The 2012/2013 ticketed Crossville concert season will include the following dates:

• Fall concert on Sat. , Sept. 8 at 7 p.m. at Stone Memorial HS Auditorium.

This concert is themed “Virtuoso Brass” and will feature the band’s own outstanding musicians with a variety of selections which will showcase the talented musicians that make up this ensemble. In addition to this, the SSSB will present a variety of marches, broad-way/movie music which will please any audience member.

• Winter concert on Sun. , Feb. 17 at 3 p.m. at Stone Memorial HS Audito-rium.

This concert is themed “Who’s Got JR?”. We all remember the big question from the TV hit Dallas, which was “Who Shot JR?”. Well the SSSB have their own bit of suspense, as they are expecting to weave a concert full of music selections

from a wide variety of music genres, that will have the audience wondering what can be next! Negotiations with a guest artist are underway, but are not con-crete at this time to be able to make that public.

• Spring concert on Sat., April 20 at 7 p.m. at the Central Baptist Church.

This concert is themed “Strings At-tached!” and will feature as guest artist, Pete Huttlinger, who is recognized as a virtuoso acoustic guitar musician. “Pete is another internationally known Nashville artist whose technique on the acoustic guitar will amaze our audience. He cut his guitar chops playing with the John Denver band, was the National fi nger-picking guitar champion, and is a com-

poser of his own music. Pete has a great sense of humor which he mixes into his performances.

Season ticketsTicket prices for the individual

concerts will be ADULTS - $20, and STUDENTS - $5. “While the student tickets prices have remained unchanged to encourage younger ages to attend, the adult tickets have had a modest increase to help cover the rising overhead costs to provide these outstanding concerts.

While we recognize that our audi-ence’s budgets are all being stretched, we have delayed this adjustment for a couple of years. But we now need to adjust the compensation of the musi-

cians who drive signifi cant distances to rehearsals and concerts and their travel expenses are becoming an issue. I trust that people will see that our ticket price is still a bargain considering the quality of the performances and guest artists which appear with the Southern Stars”, said Dwight. Season ticket prices remain unchanged and will be $45 for the three concerts.

We want to thank our sponsors who have signed on again to support the SSSB in the coming season. They are Season Sponsor - Bed & Biscuit Kennel, and Concert sponsors - Farm Bureau Insurance (Gordon Atchley), Cumberland Eye Care (Dr. Stuart Galloway), and State Farm Insurance (David Bell).

The Sandwich Generation is a term coined to describe individuals “sandwiched” between aging rela-

tives and their own children, balanc-ing fi nancial and emotional respon-sibility between the two, and saving and planning for their own retirement.

The age of an individual identifi ed as such is approxi-mately 35 years old,

raising young children and provid-ing some measure of care, fi nancial or “emotional” (physical assistance, companionship, running errands, transporting one to a doctor’s appoint-ment, etc.) to parents or other aging relatives because of a debilitating illness or advancing age. This defi ni-tion more recently has been expanded to include middle-aged individuals who are providing assistance to an adult child returning to the “nest”while seeking employment and/or returning to school to hone a skill or trade that might enable them to obtain employ-ment and simultaneously caring for a sick spouse and/or parent.

Nearly half of Americans 55 and older say they expect to provide some level of support for adult children

and aging relatives, according to Ken Dychtwald, Founder of the SunAmer-ica Financial Group and a Research Group that tracks the fi nancial and cultural impact of an aging America. “Family assistance has become the new retirement wildcard (Retirement re-set study),”Says Dychwald.

Rising Medical Costs, an ailing economy, accelerating long term care costs, diminishing returns on invest-ment portfolios, and decreasing home values only have exacerbated a tenuous situation.

Additionally, the average worker who takes time off to provide care for an aging parent, sacrifi ces more than $300,000 in lost wages and benefi ts over a lifetime, according to Sandra Timmerman, a Gerontologist and director of the MetLife Mature Market Institute. With the loss of employment income, comes a loss of 401K matching funds from the employer. This includes loss of health insurance and other ben-efi ts, and the arduous task of looking for work in a sluggish economy should the individual try to return to work.

Working with a team of seasoned professionals (Financial Planners, In-surance Agents, Bankers, Estate Plan-ners and Accountants can lessen the load. Sources of valuable information

!"#H)B#)&U+'BThe heat waves are already dancing

on the asphalt as I ride down Highway 70 N toward Monterey. Tennessee’s newest state park, Cummins Falls, is on the other side of Cookeville and I’m going to check it out. It is a 211 acre park on the Blackburn Fork State Scenic River. A waterfall and swimming hole are a fi tting destination on a day like today. Rolling down the highway at 60 mph feels like riding in a hair dryer.

One of the reasons I enjoy motorcy-cle riding is that I am exposed to nature at its best or worst, and I have to be able to adapt to it or not ride. So, I adapt, hot or cold, and I ride. Today it’s hot as blue blazes. The scent of hot pine trees fi lls the air as I ride through a stand of them. All around, the fi elds are parched brown from lack of rain and 100 degree temperatures. The gardens that are still hanging on are stunted and wilted for want of water.

I’m riding along minding my own business when a kamikaze bug comes at me just over the windshield and smacks the side of my face at the edge of my helmet. I frantically dig him out with one hand while trying to keep the bike upright and between the ditches with the other. I’m glad it wasn’t a bee. That could have been disastrous!

The zig-zagging road snaking down the side of the mountain just outside of Monterey is one of my favorites. I lean hard into the turns, almost scrapping the fl oorboards, and twist the throttle to power out of them. I barely get upright before another turn is on me in the opposite direction and I do it again. It’s exhilarating fl ying along with the mountain on one side and a shear drop off on the other. One wrong move and I’m over the edge.

I go through the heart of Cookeville where it seems I get stopped by every traffi c light. I feel like I’m being baked in an oven. Finally, I get back to the open road where at least I have a breeze. The BBQ pit beside the road is breath-ing out hickory smoke and it makes me hungry. I meet a funeral procession, and as the good southern tradition dictates, everyone pulls over out of respect.

I turn right onto Highway 56 for 5 miles and then go right again on highway 290 for a mile. A left turn onto Cummins Mills Road for 2 miles takes me to the park entrance. Along this stretch the trees form a leafy canopy over the road giving a brief but welcome respite from the blazing sun.

I reach the park entrance and care-fully navigate the quarter mile long gravel road leading to the parking lot. As soon as I park the bike I take a long drink of cold water, strap on a couple more bottles and take off down the half mile trail to the falls overlook. It’s a beautiful view of the falls from above with more water than I expected since there hasn’t been any resent rain. Cum-mins Falls is the 8th largest waterfall in Tennessee measured by volume of water, and has a 75 foot drop from top to bottom. The trail to the bottom of the falls is a little over one mile through the woods away from the falls and then back up the river. It’s a fairly easy path mean-dering through the hardwood forest and then down a series of switchbacks on

the side of the canyon to the river below. The gravel along the river path is full of fossils of crinoid stems and shells.

Taking in the scenery from the bottom of the falls it’s easy to see why it was named one of the top 10 swim-ming holes in the United States by an article in Travel and Leisure magazine. The water falls onto several large rock shelves before splashing into the cool, clear swimming hole below. In spite of the heat and the hike there are quite a few people here splashing in the water and picnicking. I fi nd a shady spot under an overhanging rock with water dripping off its lip and take a rest and

a long drink. The water looks cool and inviting. I dive in.

A little way back down the river trail I fi nd a shortcut that goes straight up the cliff wall. By scrambling and climbing up this I cut out a mile of trail, but it is

extremely strenuous and it wears me out. Back out in the open under the full sun it has to be over 100 degrees. At least on the bike there will be a breeze, although a hot one. Hopefully it will be a little cooler back up on the plateau.

This issue we are featuring Chan’s Frame & Body Shop in our Business Profi le. Owned and operated by the Mark & Lynn Roberts family, Chan’s has been in business since 1971, owned for many years by Chan Lawson.

Mark purchased the business in 2009. “When we bought Chans, we felt we could provide more attention to the cus-tomer’s needs and it was our goal to build on what Chan had started,” Mark said.

The well-known business is located at 710 Sparta Highway, next door to Potters Ace Hardware. “Our top priority is service to the customers,” Mark added. Mark has been in the automotive business for 33 years and knows a thing or two about customer service, having worked at the Chevrolet dealership, for Chan 18 years ago, and most recently, Crossville Ford. Mark’s early training came at the

local Vocational school, so you could say that Mark has spent his entire profession-al career in the automotive business.

Today, Chans provides auto body repair, refi nishing, automotive glass and radiator service to a large customer base. “We love our custom-

ers and are proud to say we have many repeat customers. Much of our success is built on the fact that our customers come back over and over and tell their friends.”

The next time you are in need of work on your automobile or perhaps you just need some advice, give Mark Roberts a call at 931-484-3519 or go by his shop and I am sure you will get the same kind of service we have always gotten from him.

He is open 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Visit him online at www.chansautobody.com

What Customers SayAbout Tubular Skylights

CALL CONRAD MILLER (931) 277-3707 OR (931) 335-3707

CONRAD MILLER ENERGY SAVING PRODUCTS

HELEN HILL, FAIRFIELD GLADE“My house was built back when they were putting fewer windows in for energy-saving reasons, and my house was very dark. I first had Conrad install tubular skylights in my living room. I liked them so well, I had him come back and put one in my kitchen. The natural light that comes in though these skylights make me feel better and I can see better with them than I can with lights. I would recommend him to everyone. He was courteous, his work was efficient and the price fair.”

DAVE DEVOS, FAIRFIELDGLADE“Tubular Skylights really perk up homes, regardless of when they were built, and in my opinion as a Real Estate agent, makes them much easier to sell. Whenever I show a home that has a tubular skylight, say in a bathroom or dark kitchen. I always ask the people looking the house to “turn off that light please,” as we leave the room. It’s funny when they hit the switch and see that it is not a light. They do look like lights.”

DONNA BJERK, TELLICO VILLAGE“Conrad installed his Tublular Skylights in my home and I feel l’ve got a new house. It’s wonderful, not like a dark cave anymore. It’s like a miracle . . .”

BOB JACKSON, FAIRFIELD GLADE“I am really enjoying the Tubular Skylight. It is amazing how much light comes in through it. It is

much brighter than I ever imagined it would be. It really brightens up the kitchen where we had it installed, and we could not be happier with it. We highly recommend Conrad. He did a very nice job and there was absolutely no mess associated with

the installation.

DON AND NATALIE NAPIER, HOMESTEADS“We had Conrad put one of his skylights in our kitchen, which had always been a bit dark in one area. We have been very pleased and like everyone else, it took us a while to quit trying to turn it off. Recently, when we were remodeling our home, a new wall went in exactly where the skylight was. Conrad was able

to use elbow tubes to angle to the new location, which kept him from moving the external flashing on the roof. “

BOB AND DONNA BONCHER, FAIRFIELD GLADE“In 1997, when we moved to our new home, we had Conrad come out an install two, one in the kitchen and one in our laundry room, which was very dark at the time. They really make a huge difference and it made working there so much more enjoyable. Donna calls her skylights, which require no electricity or wiring, her “moons” because they put out so much light, even at night. They have made quite a difference. They actually help me feel better in the Winter. Natural Light helps!”

"Conrad Miller installed a 14 " Sun Tunnel in our kitchen area, we were extremely happy with it, and also Conrad's work. We sold our house and

the brightness of the solar tube no doubt helped with this process."

“I first had Conrad install tubular

skylights in my living room. I liked them so well, I had him come back and put one in my kitchen.”
